while i realize this might not be the hugest
of news, and probably subject to extensive conversation over the responsibilities of fame, the importance of coming out and whether or not celebrities mater at all... JODIE FOSTER PSEUDO CAME OUT!!!!

She came out years ago
of course it might have been in some fantasy involving me, Her and a guest appearence on a late night talk show, but I could have sworn she was already out. I've had a crush on her since "Candleshoe"

interesting artical
I think she is already a great lesbian role model. Here is why: She has been with her partner more than 20 years. This is no small feat and how can anyone say she is not gay or out, given the public awareness of this fact. Has treated her relationship as normal as possible given her fame and the pressure to discuss her sexuality. An out famous person does out have to be an activist to be a positive role model. Lastly I do not believe you need to say the words "I am gay" to be out.

true about the positive role model part
as well as the definitions of being out. however, the default assumption that everybody is straight is pretty pervasive...if other queer women didn't know she was gay, i'd assume most of the population didn't know either (i asked classmates today and not a single knew - this is in sfo where x out of x classmates are gay). i think you're not out as a celebrity until the public really knows. it's only then that you become someone they can relate to and understand as a human being AND as someone who's gay. the standards are clearly different for non-celebrities.

Finally. Yeah, I know, the actions of rich,
super-privileged white celebrity-class denizen doesn't change much of anything. But if people are dumb enough to use celebrities as role models, then dammit, some of 'em should make an effort once in a while, for the sake of the rest of The Gays. If only because at this point in the life of this bizarro society, her not coming out gets read as being ashamed more often than note. On a related note: Jodie Foster. Yum. So cold. So cocky. So unavailable. I should also like to point out for the record that, according to someone I met who honestly really did date her...not some i-know-who-knows-some who-dated-her...she is absolutely queer and always has been.
